Version 15 brings a completely redesigned experience from the moment you open the app. New Onboarding Flow We rebuilt the entire onboarding experience from the ground up. New users are now guided through an animated feature tour that showcases the app's key features — live whale map, proximity alerts, following individual whales, migration routes, Captain Mode, and the species guide — before diving in.
